Storage #1
Poetics and Politics of Storage and Circular Use

Following the Poetics and Politics of Storage and Circular Us group’s work, this three-episode miniseries looks at the symptoms and possible responses to the current challenges of temporary storage and palliative curating of works and legacies. In this first instalment, Anna Manubens, David Bestué, Lucia C. Pino and Francesc Ruiz connect artistic processes to the larger-scale processing of materials. They talk about scrapyards, landfill, sewage treatment plants, and trucks, highlighting the energy and the aesthetic fascination that is sometimes sparked by waste and the intense memory of materials in motion. They also address the proliferation and promises of storage units, storage as crisis or free fall, and the bewilderment of knowing themselves part of a generation which has been dispossessed of space.

Teresa Solar Abboud

In this podcast, we begin with visual artist Teresa Solar Abboud sharing her Notebooks, because they condense the heartbeat of her daily practice. They are repositories of memory that also project themselves into the future and acquire the polymorphic layers of her creative processes. We spend some time talking about her work processes and the material conditions that underpin her practice. We also reflect on questions of scale, on the use of colour, on textures, and on subsurface ecosystems that hybridise the natural and industrial, the past and present.

FONS ÀUDIO #58
Lucía C. Pino

Artist Lucía C. Pino approaches her sculptural work as a conversation with the materials, the media and the surroundings—in relation to where they come from as well as the place they will occupy—, emphasising their performative aspect and their interdependence with her every move. It is a practice that is not easily defined, permeated by a wide range of interests, influences and concerns, among which Lucía includes the rituals of reading, writing, and doing-with-others. In FONS ÀUDIO #58, Lucía C. Pino presents Non-Slave Tenderness, 2018.
